hi there growers any body know how an auto flowerer would get on in with normal plants in a 12/12 lighting regime

They get on fine they just take longer to finish - great space fillers.

Hi ya dude

my last 3 grows I've had autos on the go at the same time .... no problems at all .... just takes a little longer


good luck

Hi, how much longer does it add on and does it effect the yield?

space wasters id say!! id have another good-un in there in the first place!!

just my 2p

Doesn't that rather defeat the point?


I thought Lowryders' only reedeming feature was that it was quick .....

can see your point desmo but i think the reason for the auto is because like me he cant wait to have a smoke. they are allways ready before your own crop unless you dont veg your normal plants first. atleast it will give him a better smoke then he could find on the street. weed owns me i have to have a smoke but then i dont normaly smoke cigerettes so thats why

reduced yeilds compared to the same grown under 18/6 or 20/4 , being honest its a bit of a waste of time , any strain will grow and instantly flower when grown under 12/12 , most take 2-3 weeks to show sex then happly grow to about the foot making an oz depending on strain , ive done it with lowryders before but would recommend another strain type as yeilds will be shit

While veggin the others its nice to have some early bud - also if you have a separate veg cab u can move them every night so they get 18 or 20 hrs of light a day and then they do finish a lot faster,

yield is never that great on an autos .. any where between 15/30 grams ... but came in very useful when my sats where gonna take about 16 plus weeks to finish .....when I was sure that my sats were in full flower (about 3 weeks in) I put the light forward by 2 hours making it 14 on / 10 off .... they finished (auto) in under nine weeks ....and the sats did fine to


hope that helps

good luck dude

nope , the smokes better than some would have you believe if allowed to go over , its real feature is its size so therefore filling a field it isnt noticeable and also its ability to stick it into the ground and decide when you want to be cutting but outside , getting 4 grows a year outdoors is also a rather large plus

true true, not to mention the fact that you will know alot earlier wether its male or female wasting less time indoors on a male/female ratio

and that to .......

my point was about filling up space in your grow room.

if i had the space in the first place id have filled it with one of my main strains...not a LR.

not denying the man a quick smoke...(which on a 12/12 regimen you aint gonna achieve anyway as they finish fastest under a 18/6 reg no?)....like i said, you missed my point bud.

atb desmo

thanx for the replies guys and girls
